Question

Can you help me with the 4th question which is marked b

Answer 1

we are given the following equation:

`3x+2y=12`

The slope-intercept form is the following:

`y=mx+b`

Therefore, we need to solve for "y" in the equation. To do that we will subtract "3x" to both sides:

`\begin{gathered} 3x-3x+2y=12-3x \\ 2y=12-3x \end{gathered}`

Now we will divide both sides by "2":

`y=(12-3x)/(2)`

Now we will separate the numerator:

`y=(12)/(2)-(3)/(2)x`

simplifying:

`y=6-(3)/(2)x`

And thus we get the slope-intercept form.
